How am i meant to want to play the whole match out when I constantly get teammates that wander around not attempting to progress the match dying 10 seconds into a chase or not knowing how to properly play against a killer (ex picking up the flag for knight or using emps on singularity)
I've given up on DBD for now. BHVR aint bothered with the game, so I aint bothering with DBD for 2025. My new years resolution if you will. Im sick and tired of the constant carbon-copy builds from killers, the stale gameplay, the lack of variety outside of events, and BHVRs inability to see the game needs a project health update. So until such time as either I see SUBSTANTIAL change to DBD, or 2026 rolls around. im out.
Funny thing is, most of my randoms haven't been giving up on hook. We have just been dying because we all last 10 seconds in chase and so we die at 5 or 4 gens. At least we get to play though, unlike people who give up.
Just have give up on hook drop triple BP to all remaining parties and they'll stay out of spite lol
I think imma start doing this when people just give up when I play Killer
what about killers who stand in the corner and give up at 5 gens? I have that more than I do survivors giving up at 5 gens. I think it's a 2 way issue.
Sad this issue got worse luckily I have been taking a break from Dbd mostly playing path of Titans
If you start letting people bleed on hook you're going to have people doing it in protest to waste your time counter
People killing on their first hook at the very start of the game is driving me absolutely crazy. I hate this.
Someone summed it up perfectly. The problem is survivors are generally dissatisfied the gameplay experience. They buffed killer like Nemesis and Dracula, so you see them too much. Plus the constant introduction of killers that either ignore loops or play around them easily has made people just give up. Obviously they should just hang it up but they're addicted to the game.
Tbf. if I see 2 bots in my game I can understand why you want to give up and got next because let´s be honest that bots are stupid as hell and it is basically a lost game and a waste of everyones time.
I am new low mmr and id say 60% of my games a survivor gives up immeidatley. First hook or first down. Its insane never seen people quit this often in a game ever.
Well in my defense today. When does comment was made. Now I go to work so I only played about five games. And I have no friends so I don't do Swf. In all of my five games I got tunnel and got camped. And three of them were my teammates just gave up. And as a result I lost all those times except for one at least or three of my teammates got out. But I lost to try to be the hero I guess. Then I had a match where my teammates didn't even bother trying to get me off the hook. But they left themselves be defeated by a wraith I mean like really. So I off myself on first hook. Man you get bad teammates and for killers is just so ez when that happens.
Dear every Survivor in DBD,
YOU HAVE TO FUCKING TRY. PLEASE. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD LEARN COUNTERPLAY, OR AT LEAST TRY.
WE ALL LOSE WHEN YOU CHOOSE TO GIVE UP. EVEN THE KILLER LOSES.
YOU RUIN EVERYONE'S GAME AND DAY WHEN YOU DO THIS. YOU RUIN MY DAY WHEN YOU DO THIS. YOU ENCOURAGE KILLERS TO BE RUTHLESS AND SURVIVORS TO HATE YOU MORE.
STOP.
Love,
A 60/40 hybrid Surv to Killer Main who doesn't even play that mean or anything
Until BHVR does anything to de-incentivize giving up on first hook, the give up epidemic is just going to keep getting worse and worse. There’s literally nothing stopping a survivor from just going next. Giving up on first hook should be considered a disconnect, yet it isn’t.
Killer main streamers cry more
The people that give up on hook against killer then get their team killed by doing so are artificially boost killers by doing this, maybe if we pointed this out people would stop doing it?
Also I have d/ced against doctor beceause his maddness mechanic over stimulates me so badly that I need to stop for a minute after a match to recover. with that I leave a bot the I don't just go next on hook don't make a 3v1 because you can't stand the killer.
It's so frustrating to see people DCing at the start of the match especially in event queue. I cannot even comprehend this fenomena. Like, event queue is special sacred place mostly for fun limited expirience that you'll never get in the normal "tryhard" queue. Why in the tarnation view this particular game mode as the same slot machine and ruin fun for others?
I think a lot of people are addicted to dbd and its really fucking annoying.
I like dbd. I enjoy playing the game on both sides and will play out a match even if I'm not doing well because of that. I think most people are PRETENDING to enjoy and want to play dbd habitually, because if they actually did enjoy it they wouldn't be quitting every three games- or throw a hissyfit anytime they don't encounter the 1/550 style of matches that is the only way they can specifically at least tolerate dbd in.
I don't wanna watch this video.
I MUST
GO NEXT
So i had a match tonight that pissed me off to the point of giving up then once match was over closing the game. I went in as a duo with my friend and 2 randoms vs pyramid head, a killer i LOVE facing and there was nothing toxic or bad this guy did. My rage was directed at my own team. My friend was running this pyramid head and we are on our 4th gen (3 of which i did and had 1 chase with killer) with 3 hooks total. This was a 4 person gen at 90% completion. Killer leaves my friend realizing he wont catch him and starts coming to our gen. Both our random teammates left our gen and i at this point couldnt pop it in time, the second they saw the killer leave chase and we started snowballing from there….. all it would have taken is one person being hit then one person committing to the gen on the opposite side of the map…. but no. We snowballed from there and i watch our 2 randoms go down in a 20 second period. So when my friend died again trying to finish that gen to prevent a 3 gen, i did give up and i started doing the snowman and snowball farming for points cause what is the point in trying to play that match is i am playing a 1v1 while my other 2 teammates hide in bushes which i could see them doing with bond. Then one of them had the audacity to tell me to unalive myself cause i didnt throw myself at the killer and let them get hatch, when they were incapable of running a killer or committing 2 a gen, the 2 most basic objectives we have as survivors. Stories like this on 90% of matches anymore, survivors dont come in wanting to play, they come in expecting the 3 other people to play and they reap the escape. The second i see this behavior now, i dont take the match seriously anymore. If i have solo popped a gen while someone has taken chase and the other 2 people have done nothing…. then why am i gonna take the match seriously? AND if by some miracle i can get randoms onto gens its usually corner gens leaving us in a 3 gen hell late game
I know its an unpopular opinion, but I absolutely think they should just remove the DC penalty. Bots are not perfect, but if people are giving up on hook to go next in order to get around the penalty anyway then just let them DC and give me a bot teammate.
"Going next" makes solo Q unplayable at times. It's can handle losing a game simply because information is lacking or whatever, but it is genuinely miserable to feel like it's a 50/50 coin flip on whether or not someone gives up immediately. The amount of games where it's a 3v1 for the overwhelming majority of the match because someone gave up and said games likely would've resulted in at least 2 people getting out had they stayed and did the bare minimum is absurd. The only thing more frustrating are rat players.
Honestly, if slugging people out is your answer, I would rather you ignore them outright and leave them for the end and slug them for the 4k and Finisher Mori.
That way not only do they waste their time, but hopefully they'll join the people trashing the ill-thought-out Finisher mori in the feedback forums and it'll get reverted or reworked.
Pure slugging will only make people whine for basekit Unbreakable, which would destroy the game, and that's not the goal.
The ending of your vid was so cute! You’re so right you be doing high productions now and making jokes comedians would shake they’re boots in ❤
Here's what you do.
Step 1: Put struggle meter on the second hook state
Step 2: Slug the quitter for the full 3:55 seconds.
Step 3:Right before they bleed out, hook them
Step 4: ??????
Step 5: Profit!
For me it's not the tunneling scenario, I don't mind being tunneled, it mostly the killer roster not being fun to play against, the more oppressive killers in chase, are just not fun to play against even though they are not actually broken in the 4v1. The killer roster sucks and needs changes
I play Killer because playing survivor ends in so much frustration and anger that I will end up with a half-hour DC penalty if I don't stop playing the game after my second really really bad match. So I'm a proponent of just removing the DC penalty now that we have bots.
Lmao this has been my method for months now, I want the rest of your team to see how worthless you are
In my opinion, they should make it so that if a player purposely gives up on hook, it should De-Pip them. This whole thing started when they removed "De-Pipping".
